Process
I applied online for a summer internship in Tokyo. It was through the Boston Career Forum's website, but I was quickly contacted afterward for follow-up through the company's main channels.
Several phone interviews followed, with about half technical questions and the other half personal.
Later, I had an on-site interview in Boston to get to know company employees and answer more technical questions.
Overall, it was a very friendly and fair application process.
